Consultation

We start our relationship by finding out how we can best help you.

Every one of our clients has unique requirements, so we will need to get to know each other a bit. Things we like to consider are your intended market or end use, the type of garments and artwork that you are using, your budget considerations and a timeframe for the finished product. We will also discuss your post print needs and freight options.

Artwork

Unless you want blank T-shirts, this is where it all starts! We can make new custom artwork to your specification, our network of designers can create something for all styles and budgets.

We can modify existing designs to make them suitable for screen-printing and provide digital proofs for your approval before proceeding. Our extensive experience means we can advise the best application to suit your designs. We’ll also help you decide on colours, print size and where to position the design.

Garment Supply

We have great apparel for everyone!

We offer leading brands to suit Fashion and Street-wear labels, Music and Promotional merchandise, Work-wear, High-Vis and Ethical and Green options. If you need a style you can’t find in our online catalogue, let us know and we will try to source it especially for you.

Screen Making

Using the films (sometimes called separations), we create a stencil using a light sensitive coating applied to a fine meshed screen.

Each colour in your design has it’s own screen (or stencil) that will be used to create the print. This process can be hard to understand until you have actually seen it happening.

We’ve made a short film of our screen room team in action, take a look.

Ink Matching and Colour Mixing

Pick a colour! Once your artwork is finalised, we prepare the inks required for the screen-printing process.

The colours and ink types are checked to ensure they match your specification and fabric requirements. We match colours using the Pantone Matching System (PMS), and check them under industry standard lighting. We can also match fabric swatches if required. Some inks can be modified to create special effects and finishes.

For customers that require samples, we set-up and print the design onto fabric swatches or a small quantity of garments for pre-production approval, salesman samples or third party testing.

Printing

Our factory in Brooklyn, in Melbourne’s inner west, is regarded as the most up to date, clean and efficient screen-printing facility in Australia.

We have invested in modern machines that allow us to offer complete flexibility to our clients, and our team take great pride in their ability to achieve very fast lead times without sacrificing the superior quality we’ve built our reputation on. The low minimum order quantity and high volume capacity on our multiple production lines means we can handle any size job, from 20 to 20,000 pieces! We print up to 14 colours in a range of sizes, and have the experience required to produce great looking prints on most fabric types.

Customisation

For customers that are looking for a completely unique style, we can manufacture custom made tees here in Australia or overseas.

We can also remove labels from stock supply apparel and apply your own custom branding. Our crew can arrange the sewing of woven labels, or apply our speciality soft feel screen-print inside your T-shirts. For sports teams and special events, we have a range of heat applied athletic numbers and can produce individual names. If your apparel is going to retail stores, we can attach swing tags and barcode labels.

Check out some examples of Private Label merchandise and Team Wear in our Gallery.

Packing, Fulfillment and Merchandise

One of our strengths is our commitment to being a true One Stop Shop, this means that once your stock has been decorated, we can attach swing-tags and barcodes, carefully fold it, and pack to your requirements in our warehouse.

We can split your goods into individual orders or prepare wholesale ratio packs and co-ordinate your local freight or arrange drop shipping to any location Worldwide.
